^I don't think anyone expects NSMB to challenge MW2's first day or week sales, but MW2 is going to be very frontloaded, while NSMB will be selling well for months, even years, heck NSMB DS is still in the top 50

CoD4 had monster legs

CoD WaW had awesome legs

Halo 3 had good legs

CoDMW2 will have at least legs like GTA4 (2.2 FW multiplier) or Halo 3 (2.7 FW multiplier) probably even better

 

360 version alone could easily reach 14 million sales, PS3 version 8 million and PC version 4 million

MW2 is going to not have the legs of the other games, its sales are going to be up front.

 

Also in order to sell 14 million on the 360, it would have to outsell Halo 3 by about 4 million, yeah, I don't see that happening

I already proved you wrong with GTAIV and Halo 3. They had the previous highest 1st week sales. There is NO reason why it should have worse legs.

Halo 3 will also gather some more sales until the 360 version of MW2 surpasses it.

 

MW2 end of holidays prediction:

360 - 8-9 million

PS3 - 5-5.5 million

PC - 2 million


  No you didn't, Halo 3 and GTA 4 didn't sell 7 million their first day, Halo 3 didn't even sell 4 million its first week, GTA 4 combined was little over 5.7 million its first week, so basically MW2 did almost twice as well as Halo 3's first week sales in a day and more than a million over GTA 4's first week sales.

@TheThunder, next time try using 2010, Jan 10 indicates January 10th, not 2010

I was using ioi's projected 1st week calculations for my estimates: 360 - 5.5m; PS3 - 3.3m

 

Halo 3 sold 3.8m in its first week. 10.3m until today. -> 3,800,000*2.7 = 10,260,000

GTA IV sold 5.9m in its first week. 13.2m until today. -> 5,900,000*2.2 = 13,000,000

MW 2 will sell 10m in its first week:

A) GTA4 legs -> 10,000,000*2.2 = 22,000,000

B) Halo 3 legs -> 10,000,000*2,7 = 27,000,000

 

Platform breakdown was: 360 - 55%; PS3 - 33%; PC - 12%

A) 360 - 12.1m; PS3 - 7.3m; PC - 2.6m

B) 360 - 14.9m; PS3 - 8.9m; PC - 3.2m

 

Of course we know that PC legs are completely different than console legs. So that might differ a bit.
